selfish giant
 
this impersonal ghost
that's taking the place of Love
sits in between a frowning smile
and an empty hand
words made by design
warm by purpose cold by effect
indecent thoughts plague
a worrying mind
from the drive of being simply kind
we derive nothing but lies
poisoned is the questioning pursuer
empowered is the Selfish Giant
"but these are the wounds of Love"
a child once said with
knowledge that Paradise awaits
